![]() Bro, don't mix your business with relationship if you want to succeed...No man'll ever tell you that but it's something you'll have to learn on your own, whether by mistake or by correction.... Like the op said, sometimes you may fail a thousand time but you've got to stand on your feet a million time just to face that challenge.. Las las, success is a general underwear while failure is a personal underwear...That I've told myself, because no one would wanna associate with a failure,not even your most loyal girlfriend ![]() 4 Likes |

They sure never told us it will be this difficult... That folks will ignore our calls fearing we are up to ask for more credits and bailouts... They never told us about the persistent headache while always trying to think it through. They never told us that our life will change before we balance. That our priorities will change, that a lot of things Wil change...that uneseay lies in the roads ahead.... That being called a CEO comes with its challenges... They never told us. I spite of all the difficulties, I won't look back. 10 Likes |

TransAtlanticEx:This part is something that many have experienced. Nigeria too is a very peculiar entrepreneur unfriendly environment where u can't walk to a bank and easily get loans. Most times start up capital are minimal because they come from meagre savings or relations,then expansion becomes very very slow,if not impossible because you ain't even making enough to keep afloat,or making very little and can't run again to relations/friends because they either don't have,you haven't paid for your initial capital or they are now expecting to be reaping some benefits from you. 2 Likes 1 Share |

No one ever tells you it's easy until you starts.. Honestly it hasn't been funny at all o.. You must be prepared to let go of some friends that doesn't believe and supports you and every other form of distractions if not you are just wasting your time I' ve failed too many times than I can remember but I made my vision and mission clear to myself that there's no turning back and always believed their's light at the end of the tunnel.. You will see success comes knocking... 6 Likes |

Am an enterprenuer but I didn't pass through all these shit you mentioned. It was difficult starting but I blazed through. Now these are the rules 1) never start a business without a proper knowledge of the business 2) Never start a business without adequate financial management skill 3) Never start a new business without the mindset to be frugal in your spending at least for the first one year 4) the last but the most important is never start a business without a spiritual backup else the elements might just frustrate you All these I can expanciate but I'm too lazy to type 9 Likes |
